Ozeano Swimwear

by Shaina Alonzo

It emerged in late 2015 thanks to the vision and passion of Shaina Alonzo, founder and CEO.

Shaina loves the sea, adventure, and sustainability, and she had a dream! A dream inspired by her deep love for the ocean and her desire to create a brand that breaks the mold, doing everything differently, on the beautiful island of the Dominican Republic. For her, sustainability isn't just a word; it's the essence of every adventure, and Ozeano is her way of sharing that passion and commitment with the world, one bikini at a time.

OZEANO SWIMWEAR

It's much more than a swimwear and beach accessories brand; it's a commitment to sustainable fashion, people, and the planet. Each piece is made with high-quality, certified textiles made from recycled plastic bottles (Re-PET) and other natural and organic fibers, thus offsetting the carbon footprint of traditional textiles.

We use surplus textiles to make accessories and promote circularity throughout the production chain. We also integrate natural fibers such as lilac flowers and water hyacinth, found in the rivers and beaches of the Dominican Republic.

Each #ozeanoswimwear is a promise: "Save our oceans one bikini at a time," seeking to promote a more relaxed, conscious, and environmentally friendly fashion.

Through unique and exclusive prints, they are not only creating swimwear or accessories, but also promoting art and telling stories to foster culture and education about the beautiful Quisqueya Island.

Ozeano doesn't just represent fashion; it represents the adventurous, environmentally conscious, and, above all, self-confident woman who knows no boundaries. Ozeano is more than a business; it's a vehicle for doing things differently.
